Sha "Pj" Junchun is a retired StarCraft progamer from China who played Protoss for SK Telecom T1.He was regarded as the best player in China from 2003 to 2009.

Overview[edit]

PJ was originally a race picker, but switched to Protoss by the time he went to Korea to play for SK Telecom T1 in 2005. In WCG 2007 PJ defeated sAviOr 2-1 in straight up macro games, which was considered as one of the biggest upsets in StarCraft history. Although PJ lost to Stork in the finals, he has become one of the few foreigners (along with Elky, Fisheye and Androide) to reach the finals of WCG. After being eliminated in the group stages of WCG 2008 China, PJ managed to take 3rd place in WCG 2009 China and participated in the Grand Finals. PJ managed to qualify from his group with a score of 6-1 (only losing to Bisu) by defeating top European players such as Dimaga, GOsia, and Bruce. PJ, however lost to Stork once again 1-2 in a close best out of 3 series. Despite being eliminated in the round of 8, PJ left an impression to the audience as the best non-Korean player of the tournament.

Despite his great performance in WCG 2009, PJ was eliminated by Lx and Bugzerg in WCG China 2010. He retired shortly after WCG 2010 China and got married.

Facts[edit]

  • Defeated sAviOr 2-1 in WCG 2007 Round of 8. Defeated White-Ra 2-1 in the semifinals but ended up losing to Stork 0-2 in the finals.

  • Idra has stated that PJ is the best non-Korean Protoss to him since he's much harder to beat TvP. Although Idra thinks Lx 's PvP and PvZ are much better than PJ's, he states that PJ is placed to him as the smarter and more abusive PvT player.
